Hello,
I consider buying the Angel for F3A training and maybe for a little 3D, too. I would like to know about power setups with 5s LiPo. I would like to use 5s rather than 6s because I might buy new Hyperion G3 batteries, they can be charged at even 5C. And the charger's power is not unlimited, I think I'm going to get a Hyperion EOS720iNet 250W charger. So, 5s packs could be charged faster because of the lower voltage. But if there will be too little power with 5s, I'll go with 6s. So, what do you say? On Silvestri's flying videos this plane can also do a little 3D, so I would like to get a suitable prop to F3A and 3D, too. What about the batteries, there is 3300mAh and 4000mAh G3 LiPos available?

Sorry to reply so late, and I hope this is helpful.
I use 5s5000 packs on a Hacker A50-12S with a 16x10 APCe prop. I have beyond unlimited vertical and over 1300 watts of power. Personally I have found that for F3A practice a 15x8 prop and 1000 watts is plenty, but I guarantee the Hacker A50-12S, 5s1p, 16x10 is a GREAT 5s setup for the Angel.
The graph below is showing the A50-12S with a TrueRC 5s5000 pack and a 16x10 APCe prop.
